What you need to know:  The Dodgers will welcome outfielder Juan Soto and the Washington Nationals when the two teams open a three-game series Monday at Dodger Stadium.

Soto appeared at Chavez Ravine last week when he participated in the All-Star home run derby contest and the All-Star Game for the National League.

The Dodgers will send one of their All-Star pitchers to the mound, right-hander Tony Gonsolin (11-0, 2.02 ERA) against Nationals’ right-hander Paolo Espino (0-3, 3.57).

The Dodgers (64-30) capped a four-game sweep of the San Francisco Giants on Sunday with a 7-4 victory that extended their current winning streak to eight games.

The Nationals (32-65) avoided a sweep by Arizona when the beat the Diamondbacks, 4-3. Washington has won just three of its last 20 games and trails the New York Mets by 27½ games in the National League East.

The Dodgers expect left-hander Andrew Heaney, who hasn’t appeared in a game since April 17 because of shoulder problems, to rejoin the rotation and he could be available for the series finale Wednesday.
